This is the only bottle/cup my 10 month old will drink out of! We've used others, but my daughter ends up chucking them across the room. This is the only one she doesn't let go of and she actually drinks out of it. The first day we bought it, she gobbled up all 12 ounces! She loves it. It is durable because she's set it aside a few times and it fell, but still hasn't broken. Also, it DOES leak if you tip it towards you because the hole on the top makes it easier to sip out of. But, she doesn't tip it anyway and it comes with an easy-to-use cap. I'd say this is the best sippy/straw cup out there (and we've used lots).

I was looking for a straw bottle for my baby as she didn't take regular bottles and I didn't want to give her the sippy cup. My baby was 6 m.o. when I gave it to her - since then it's her favorite toy. She figured it out in a matter of seconds.
The pros:
- clear BPA free plastic to see how much liquid is in
- measurements are in mm and oz
- soft silicone top of the straw can't hurt my baby gums even if she sips/chews it in the car on the bumpy ride
- the straw is smaller than regular ones thus creating less flow (with the regular straws the flow is too much for her to handle and the majority of liquid ends up on her/floor)
- perfect size for her tiny hands

The cons:
- the straw is smaller than the regular ones (hard to clean. I use the bottle nipple brushes and it take all my strength to get it inside the straw). Would be nice if manufacturer come out with it's own brush (if they have it, I don't know about it).

We have been using this cup for over a month now and so far so good. I've bought it at local Whole Foods.

We've owned 3 of these - purchased at Whole Foods.

Pros: We keep purchasing them b/c our 1.5 y.o. can easily open & close it herself. It's BPA & Phthalate Free. It's transparent so you can see how much liquid is left easily. It's standard size so fits in cupholders. It's a very toddler-friendly, easy to handle size. The straw is soft so doesn't get chewed into a squished narrow opening like many hard straws do.

Cons: Not durable. Our daughter dropped 1 of our 3 from the kitchen table to the floor and a huge circle hole cracked out of the lid. Not the best design: The 2nd of 3 was ruined when we brought it to the beach & a few granules of sand got btw. the flip lid and lid, scratching lines in the material & rendering it difficult to open.

My son is EBF and refuses all bottles. gave this to him ( 5 months, 3 weeks) and instantly started drinking right from the straw! So much for bottles, right on to the cup!!!

I got this bottle because it was free of BPA plastic...thats good for our kids...BUT this bottle spills...and my son dropped it on the concrete...and it broke...with a hole and a huge crack...so durable it is not...

Was on my second one with my now four year old. But my one year old loved it two and managed to break them both with a simple drop to hardwood floors :( I'll be looking for something else unfortunately.

Got one of these as a present and loved it. my toddler liked using it as well. I liked how it was fairly easy to clean, a bigger size bottle and it had the oz. measurements on the side. However, he dropped it from his high chair to our hardwood floor and it cracked and started leaking. I see other toddlers dropping their sippy cups everywhere and theirs don't seem to break. I guess the plastic on this cup isn't as strong which is unfortunate because toddlers often drop things and throw things on the floor. Would've liked to have used this for years but only used it for 2 months.

Our toddler has enjoyed using these bottles since she was a year old. We've owned two over the last 7 months.

Pros: Very easy for toddlers to hold, sip from, and open and close. Semi-transparent bottles make it easy to see how much liquid remains.

Cons: Bottles leak from the straw when you take it out of the fridge and the pressure equalizes. Also leak from around the threads even when cap and valve are secured. The open/close tabs have chipped off of both bottles from having been dropped onto hardwood and tile floors. The straws, apparently great teethers, need replacing every one or two months. The decorations on the bottle wear away after a few washes (we handwash the bottles). Have I mentioned these bottles leak?
